Moscow targets Ukraine's energy grid as European Union warns against sabotage

Russian forces launched fresh drone strikes against Kyiv, injuring at least one person following Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's address to the United Nations General Assembly. Moscow's defense ministry confirmed a renewed military campaign specifically targeting Ukraine's energy infrastructure ahead of winter. In response to Ukrainian counterstrikes on Russian petroleum facilities, Moscow has faced domestic fuel shortages, prompting foreign fuel purchases.

Meanwhile, security concerns in Western Europe escalated after German authorities identified two suspects linked to Moscow in connection with explosive drone incidents in Leipzig. Reacting to the developments, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen warned that the bloc "will not tolerate attacks" on member states' territory and remains prepared to deploy defensive measures.
